Beautiful displays of pastries all made with love and care. The taste was fresh and on point. Staff was pleasant and helpful. Thank you for the fresh baklava. My family was delighted with the variety plate I brought home. I will be back. One suggestion is to open a little earlier so I could get my coffee here and a plate to share at work. read more

I truly hate writing bad reviews, especially about a place I genuinely used to love. The place is still beautiful, elegant, and the service is still amazing. The staff were kind and welcoming as always, so this review has absolutely nothing to do with them. But... and this is a BIG but... what happened to the pastries? I honestly don't know if there's new ownership, a new pastry chef, or someone decided to "improve" the recipes. Whatever changed... please change it back. The mahalabia had nothing to do with mahalabia. The Arabic ice cream was actually good, so credit where credit is due. The halawet el jibn was unbelievably sweet, but unfortunately sweetness alone doesn't make a great dessert. And the kunafa... it just wasn't the kunafa I remembered. What makes me the saddest isn't even the desserts. It's the memories. This used to be our family's go-to place. Birthdays, family gatherings, random dessert cravings... this was our spot. It was always full of people, laughter, and amazing desserts. Walking in now and seeing it almost empty honestly made me sad because I know how good this place used to be. I really hope this review reaches the owner in the spirit it's intended. I'm not trying to put the business down I actually want to see it succeed again. I would love nothing more than to come back one day, take my first bite, and say, "Yep... they're back!" Until then, I'll just be holding on to the sweet memories... because, sadly, they were sweeter than the desserts this time. read more

I have visited quite a number of baklava pastry places in Toronto and Montréal to test them out. This is unquestionably one of the finest middle eastern bakeries I have ever visited. Good quality and freshness. Simply top-notch! Sarah works behind the counter and she is very nice and friendly. Not just showing me different baklava flavors but also giving me sample pieces to try. Excellent customer service! Love this place. Aside from the artisanal baklava, they also have signature dessert choices, including: - Sweet cheese with semolina and rose petal jam (wow!) - Crunchy toasted kataifi with ashta & syrup - Toasted kunafa with mixed nuts and milk - Soft buttery semolina with pistachios - Awesome stringy cheese with kunafa in a bun! Simply irresistible. LOL. Take a look at my photos, you will get the idea instantly. At the end of the day, no one should take too much sweet treat all at once. Instead, it's such a nice feeling to bring back baklava and share many with friends, families, and loved ones. Share your love! Such a beautiful baklava place. An absolutely delightful experience. No wonder they call themselves Crown Pastries! Four convenient locations. See more details and their story at https://www.crownpastries.com/, read more

LOVE getting my baklava and kunafa fix from here! Honest business with consistently great quality, fresh, and beautifully presented middle-eastern desserts. One of my favourite spots to pick up treats for friends. My favourite is their Ish Al Asfour "Bird's nest", Barma pistachio rolls (out of the world!), and Walnut baklava. I've also dined in and had their CROWN PLATE with their assortment of treats with tea. Highly recommend doing this!! I loved that Maamoul Madd with pistachios and I also indulged in their goey cheesy kunafa! The staff is really great with packing up the take-out orders and is generous with giving samples for you to try if you weren't sure about a certain one. read more

This was our first time here in Crown Pastries and must mention that it was our first time trying out Kunafa as well. I have had variations in baklava but not Kunafa. It is a unique acquired taste and I am glad I tried it, as I loved it. For the taste it was similar to a couple of South Indian sweets so was well the love for me. The place was so clean and the person working there helped me learn how to eat my Kunafa as it was given with a tiny sugar syrup box. I will visit here again for all the middle Eastern sweet needs read more

Crown Pastry has a good selection of Middle Eastern desserts, but the quality can be inconsistent. The baklava is decent, though sometimes a bit too sweet or dry. Service is friendly but can be slow. Overall, it's an okay spot, but not the best I've had. read more

They are very nice. Pleasant, and the best Dubai Chocolate Parfait. Very Fresh Products.

Was visiting from California went in today to buy four Dubai chocolate bars for gifts person at the cash extremely Agro, super rude, suffice it to say never going back again. If I didn't promise these chocolates to people, I would've just left them. It's unfortunate when businesses are ruined by the people that work there -- hard pass for me. read more

My two students and I had lunch at Nando's today. One of them had left a bit earlier for another commitment. My other student and I left the restaurant after we were done. I noticed Crown Pastries, a new bakery located in the same plaza. I asked her whether we could pop by. She said yes. There was a sign on the window that said that it offers Cheesecake Factory products. It was ironic that all three of us had just talked about cheesecake during lunch. I walked in and it felt like heaven. There were tons of Middle Eastern delicacies that immediately made me smile. I love kunafa and eyed something that looked like what I enjoy. Each honey item of yumminess made me smile. We walked some more and saw various cookies. Yum! We finally got to the Cheesecake Factory items. You can choose from at least eight different flavours of cheesecake. There were also vanilla bean and red velvet cupcakes. I got a pack of four of the latter for $12. Folks at this bakery are incredibly friendly. The woman helping me with my order offered a free sample of kunafa to both of us. One acronym: OMG! It was delicious. It was crunchy, creamy, rich, and buttery. I will need to come back to get kunafa. Yum! (352) read more

This place is the BEST one in Ontario in my opinion. Crown Pastries is my go-to whenever I've got a sweet craving or whenever I need to buy treats for an occasion. It's also a nice place to hang out for tea or late at night. I've visited the Mississauga location a few times and find that it is well situated, since it's surrounded by many restaurants. The staff are super friendly and they're always offering samples. Price is a bit pricy for the pastries but it's worth every penny as what you pay for is quality, freshness and goodness. I've always heard great things about Crown Pastries but only recently got to try it. However, I've been going back over and over, ever since. read more

My boyfriend really liked the original location, so we came up to Toronto and checked out the Mississauga location. The interior was very clean, and it had a welcoming vibe. The desserts were out on display, so you can see which ones were available along with the name and price. We were greeted by a very nice guy at the counter, who asked if we've been here before. I haven't, so he offered to let me try some of the pastries. He gave us his suggestions, and I tried 5 samples of pastries or so (very sweet). After that, I just got a bit of everything to try on the spot. I ate a bit too much and was sweetened out! But overall, I really like the sweet crispy texture, and the nuts are very crunchy and flavorful. We got some more pastries to bring home, and I had my family try the pastries back home. They really liked it, but my mom did comment that it was a bit too sweet. It's something to keep in mind if you don't like really sweet dessert. I do like the pastries a lot, but I think it's a bit too sweet for my taste. I prefer less sweetness overall, but this is good to eat if you only eat one piece at a time occasionally. My personal favorite is the birds nest one - definitely try it! read more

Crown Pastries - Different pastries in a sushi like box - Bakeries Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

5* considering I felt at ease asking the girl behind the counter about all the pieces that I was interested in. In comparison to their competitors, the customer service here is much, MUCH better. I was even offered a sample piece which was probably the best in the mix that I got! I can't remember the name, but it had some kinda cheese/cream on the inside. Pieces weren't too buttery or too syrupy sweet! All tasted pretty fresh. Aside from the cheese/cream one, I liked the philo and vermicelli pieces the best. I got a mix of 10 different pieces and it was approx. $13 + change. So not that bad. Looks really impressive if you're going over to someone's house for dinner! Will definitely visit again, maybe even as a dine-in for dessert! read more

Always fresh. Melts in your mouth. Service is good. Usually gives a free sample. Place is clean.

Love this place. This middle eastern bakery is the 2nd branch of the original in Scarborough, started by brothers from Aleppo, Syria. I've been here 4x and tried half of the pastries, and everything they make is of the highest quality, real butter, lots of nuts, fragrant, fresh, flavorful, and not overly sweet. The guys behind the counter are always so nice, offering samples of anything you want to try (can get full off samples, beware lol) and it's just a beautiful display of pastries and nice place to sit down and have tea and some sweets! If you haven't visited here yet you need to, you haven't tasted real baclava until you've had it here, and there are so many other amazing desserts to try. read more

This is basically the place that introduced me to middle eastern pastry, and I absolutely love the place! Their offerings are pretty sweet, so it's definitely not for everyone, but it definitely will not disappoint you if sweets are your cup of tea! The staff is very helpful about which ones to pick and let you sample a lot of different things. My absolute favorite is the one that kind of looks like a bird's nest, so I would definitely recommend that. read more

Great pastries, very friendly service and solid decor. Staff was very friendly was able to explain all the various items. Very good turkish coffee and cappuccino read more

Accidentally discovered this place on a lunch break with my coworkers. Walked in and I WAS ABSOLUTELY STUNNED!!! Decor was beautiful .. but the pastries were just AMAZING. I had to get an assorted batch to take home for my boyfriend and his family - they loved how authentic the baklava tasted and wanted to go back ASAP. I want to come back on a weekend and just enjoy the cafe atmosphere Turkish coffee was also delicious. read more

Gorgeous and delicious pastries, the store layout is a bit awkward but probably due to Covid. Definitely worth a tey

This was a lovely place for a Turkish coffee and cheesecake. 3 of us shared the Turkish coffee and it was great! Wish we had ordered more! There were a lot of pastries and cookie options. They even had The Cheesecake Factory cheesecakes. Not too many drink options but they had exactly what we wanted. The staff was very kind and friendly. We all enjoyed it here very much and will certainly be returning. read more

We used to hear about this place in Scarborough but it was too far for us to go there. We heard it's now open in Mississauga so we went to try it out. We weren't disappointed. Everything we bought was very delicious and the prices were reasonable. I think this is the best Arabic sweets place in town so far. read more

Nice staff, clean and nice inside, delicious Baklava...I loved their Turkish baklava selection.

Horrible, I waited in line for 10 minutes even though no one was in the line.They look at me and kept walking bye, get better workers.

Awful pastries and prices are way too much selling sugar and flour for $32/kilograms rip off. I will never go there. Very unprofessional and bad nature owners read more

Excellent service by the young woman behind the counter. I was immediately greeted by a smile. I ordered an espresso and cheese baked good to go and It was so good. I don't know the name but I believe it has ricotta cheese in it. Very clean and modern inside. It's a cute place to come for tea or coffee instead of Starbucks or Tims. read more

Nice ambiance, restaurant. But really overpriced and the baklava lacked strong flavour. It's $34/kg but the selection and taste is much better at Adonis ($22/kg). Not overly impressed my first visit and won't be coming back. read more

My mom, sister and I absolutely loved the service we got here! It's our 2nd time here, and would say the quality is consistent! Best place in Mississauga that I've tried.

Found this bakery by accident since we were staying at the hotel near by . Very clean and nice inside - so many choices ! When I was there , they were busy but the manager greeted me right away and told me that he will be tight with me - so I did not mind the waiting. Pastry /dessert are sold by the pound - i purchase many pieces of different pastries ( all of them are made with pistachio) - to sample - they are all well made and not as sweet.They have another shop in Scarborough- a Toronto must try ! read more
